Ristow Family Adventures: January 2016
http://ristow4inak.blogspot.com/2016_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 25, 2016. Great Ball of Fire. I’ve never been a sun lover. In fact, since moving to Alaska I’ve discovered that I’m really a snowman trapped in a human body (and all those years I thought I was sweating—turns out I was actually melting! Who knew the sun was a giant battery charger for our bodies? And then it hit me. The physical effects we suffer from lack of sunshine are strangely similar to the spiritual effects we suffer from lack of “Son-shine”. Are you feeling Son-starved? When we mo...

Ristow Family Adventures: In the Beginning...
http://ristow4inak.blogspot.com/2016/05/in-beginning.html
Friday, May 20, 2016. In the beginning God created the Heavens and Earth." A few months ago I started reading a really fascinating book about creation by an organization called Answers in Genesis. And if we don't believe in what the Bible says, our hearts become hardened which ultimately results in eternal separation from God, the Creator of the world, and author of Genesis. I hope you will read and study the Book of Genesis (especially the first 11 chapters). In today's world where the truth is unde...

Ristow Family Adventures: May 2015
http://ristow4inak.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 22, 2015. On a Wing and a Prayer. When I was younger I loved roller coasters. Spin me, twirl me turn me upside down- the scarier the better! Now that I am older than 20, my brain and body continue to spin, twirl and turn upside down long after the ride is over, and for some reason, it is not as enjoyable as it used to be. A very fast and stylish coffin with wings. Pray Breathe. Pray some more. I'm sure this is routine for the pilot. Not But the ground was just yards away and we were ecstatic.

Ristow Family Adventures: February 2015
http://ristow4inak.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 11, 2015. God has something great planned for your life, but that plan can't be fulfilled if you're living according to what the world says and not what God says. So what does God say? Do not conform to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is- His good, pleasing and perfect will." Romans 12:2. It is very hard to be unique in a world that says uniqueness is bad- but there is hope!

Ristow Family Adventures: February 2016
http://ristow4inak.blogspot.com/2016_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 26, 2016. The Ristow girls with Amy and Zeppelin, the new home owners. It was one year ago today that we handed the keys to our beloved home over to its new owners. Tears burned my eyes as we strolled through the empty rooms and down memory lane one last time. A small sob escaped from my lips and echoed throughout the halls. It was time to go, time to close the chapter. I made my castle tall. I built up every wall. This is my kingdom and it needs to fall. I want You and no one else.

Ristow Family Adventures: September 2015
http://ristow4inak.blogspot.com/2015_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 25, 2015. Emergency in Remote Alaska. Our skin is a pretty remarkable organ. I just read that we have 19 yards of blood vessels, 95 oil glands, 650 sweat glands, and over 19,000 sensory cells in ONE INCH OF SKIN! Wow Did you know that the average adult's skin covers an area of 22 square feet? Now that is a serious amount of vessels, glands, and cells! And did you know that our skin renews itself every 28 days? Nearing a state of panic I called the experienced village health aide who too...
